Nana Original Thai Food represents another Thai cuisine option within Far East Plaza's dense food landscape, distinguishing itself through emphasis on traditional preparations and authentic seasoning approaches. The restaurant's inclusion of "Original" in its name signals commitment to staying close to conventional Thai cooking methods rather than pursuing fusion concepts or heavily adapted versions aimed at less adventurous palates. This positioning appeals particularly to diners with experience of Thai food who can appreciate proper execution of familiar dishes.
The kitchen focuses on core Thai categories including curries, stir-fries, noodle preparations, and soups, with execution that demonstrates understanding of proper technique and seasoning balance. Particular attention is paid to the interplay of flavors - the sweet, salty, sour, and spicy elements that must harmonize for Thai dishes to succeed. The restaurant accommodates spice level preferences while maintaining the fundamental flavor profiles that define each dish. Fresh ingredients and proper cooking techniques ensure dishes arrive at the table with appropriate textures and temperatures.
Nana Original Thai Food maintains operating hours covering lunch and dinner service, positioning itself as a reliable option for office workers, shoppers, and residents of the Orchard area seeking satisfying Thai meals without premium pricing. The service model emphasizes efficiency and consistency, recognizing that many customers are working with limited time or specific budget considerations. The straightforward approach and dependable execution have helped establish the restaurant as a solid choice within Far East Plaza's competitive environment.

The food was extremely delicious and authentic. It tasted like food that I ate in Thailand. We visited this restaurant around 3.30pm and the service was extremely fast and efficient. The fried rice and the Thai Milk Tea is extremely tasty. Initially saw a lot of bad reviews on Google but the food turned out to be really good. Highly recommend people to visit this place during off-peak hours.

By chance we decided from a few available places to eat at far east plaza. We saw quite a few table with Thais eating so we reckon it has to be good.
The food we ordered turned out awesome. It is very authentic and the taste is just nice with the level of spiciness we requested. The green chicken although not as thick as most places but it is the way we like it to be. The ingredients are all very fresh.
The pineapple rice has lots of ingredients and is homey tasty.
The ruby and chendol desserts are fabulous. The coconut milk is smooth light and fragrant!
Will want to come back here again for other dishes.

Thai friend recommended this place. We visited on a weekday dinner time. Menu has a wide variety of dishes - fried kway teow and coconut milk curry were good

Foods were really great, maybe one of the most delicious authentic Thai cuisine that I’ve ever eaten so far. Price was reasonable and the serving portion was big enough. I ordered tom yum and share with 3 people. Really recommend it! Also try the prawn cake and steamed fish. So far good experience here

Truly amazing authentic Thai cuisine, here’s my review of the dishes we ate.
1. Pa Naeng Curry - the red curry goes very well with the Thai green brinjal and is not too spicy.
2. Shrimp Paste Fried Chicken - shrimp paste marinated fried chicken, I think the Thai prawn paste taste better than those Cze Char Shrimp paste.
3. Pad Basil - one of the worst Pad Basil I have eaten, it was not dry enough and also the chef added too much chilli (I asked for less spicy.)
4. Pineapple Fried Rice was not too bad but not the best fried rice.
